Petko’s professional EA algo course describes in detail how he creates his profitable robots. I use his method all the time. Sometimes I modify it by selecting 10 strategies instead of two and put them in a portfolio. I also use his balanced portfolio method all the time. The other thing I do is to recreate new EA’s/robots once a week instead of once a month. I did some backtesting and it shows that overall profit is greater when EA’s are recreated once a week. Hope this helps! If you want to ask me more questions, I will check in once a day and do my best to answer them.
Good stuff Alan, I found that following that method worked well for me also. However I prefer generating less often and allowing EAs some time on a demo account and then moving them from there as is done in most of Petkos other courses. Many things work, mostly it’s about gaining experience through practice in my opinion.
Thank guys! I appeciate you taking the time to reply.
I did indeed take the Pro course already, so I’m glad to hear that others are using this strategy with success.
@Alan: Great, thanks – a few followup questions…- When creating your EAs, do you adjust the trading times to the market hours, like in the (Forex Expert Advisor course – London, New York & Tokyo Algorithmic trading) course?
- How far back in time to you base your EA creation?
- And do you run any of the optimization and robustness checks?
- When doing the 6month/1month validation, do you then only use your newly created EAs or all of your previous collections for that pair/time as well?
- In the pro course, Petko mentions that using he’s method, you would not need to do Demo trading as well. Do you see better performance when running on a demo for a while and filtering out EAs first?
Hello Petko Aleksandrov,
Hello everyone,
I’ve used the expert advisor studio for 2 weeks.
Impressive thing I give you that. The only thing is that I could not choose any parameter for short (entries and exits.)
The best I did, in theory, is actually pretty good (I think): with a profit factor of 2.34
But he acts crazy on mt4 and different on mt5, And the results are quite different.
On the eatradingacademy.com the behaviour of the ea was quite predictable whilst on different MT demo accounts it wasn’t.
Just wish I had more time. Since the price to unlock it is quite expensive. (not saying isn’t worth it, maybe it is) I can’t really at this moment to continue to test and create new EA’s.
Thank you Petko Aleksandrov. (I’ve subscribed to your youtube channel. And I’ve also been testing your recommendations there.)
All the best everyone!
There is still a lot you can do with EA Studio after the Trial period is over. Some of the things you cannot do is to import historical data from your broker so you have to use the premium data. Also, you cannot export EAs or create portfolios. You can however, import some of Petkos EAs and analyze them and you can practice creating strategies. So, as I said, there is a lot of things you can continue to do with EA Studio to continue to evaluate it! So, don’t quite. As you continue to gain experience with EA Studio you will begin to see how valuable of a tool it is. As for not having good experience using Petkos EAs with your own broker, there could be many reasons why you are experiencing this issue. Keep communicating on the Forum to get your issues resolved!
